Um, considering we have no long three, yeah.Should the Spurs try to sign him for the minimum if he becomes available?

The Knicks are in the process of negotiating a buyout with Jalen Rose, according to a source close to the veteran small forward. Rose was a no-show at yesterday's public practice at FDU-Teaneck. When asked about Rose's whereabouts, Isiah Thomas replied: "I would just say personal reasons at this time."
Jerome James and newcomer Kelvin Cato also were missing yesterday.
Rose, who is scheduled to earn $16 million, .arrived for camp out of shape and struggled in the preseason. In four games, Rose played 42 minutes and missed the only two shots he attempted. He did not dress for Friday's preseason finale against the Nets and did not sit on the bench.
It has been clear since the start of training camp that Rose has no future in New York. Quentin Richardson is expected to be the Knicks' opening-night starting small forward, with David Lee and Renaldo Balkman serving as backups. Also, small forward Jared Jeffries, who was signed during the summer, is scheduled to return from a fractured right wrist by mid-December.
Asked if Rose would be in the rotation, Thomas said: "I'll let you know in a couple of days."

I don't know. I guess he could be the new Glen Robinson, but I don't think he's ready to pay a role. I don't think Rose will ever be ready to play a role, but thats just my (way) outside observation of him.
No, he can't defend and rebound.
I rather give playtime to Eric Williams.
You can treat him the way Pop treated Big Dog - we'll bring you in, but we aren't going to bend over backwards for you. If you act up, you're gone. But if you want to be a part of the team and win a le, come on down.
Low risk/high reward...
I wouldn't mind having Rose at all. A good scoring talent, and is 6'8". Not a good defender or anything, but not someone that can be posted up easily by a big SG/SF.
It would be kind of funny if the Spurs did get him, Nazr then Butler and then Jalen Rose

Rose has played 42 minutes this preseason and hasn't scored a point.Thomas already has said he thinks Rose is deficient defensively and might not have "a lot of run left in that body." Rose has appeared to be in less-than-peak condition this preseason.
Rose supposedly said many times he'd like to play in LA.
Whatever happened to Q Woods?
Peter Holt needs to buy a 7th house. He should pocket the money and the Spurs should go with 14.
I doubt Rose would sign on here to play less than he would have in New York.
Isiah has ed up everything he has touched, from the Raptors to the CBA to the Knicks. Excuse me for not trusting his evaluation.
As for Rose's pre-season play, the simple facts are he knows he's on the way out, doesn't get along with Isiah, and has shut it down.
Qyntel >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >Jalen
Every team that Jalen was ever on purposefully got rid of him. He resists changes to his comfort zone, not wanting to play PG, not wanting to play SF, whatever. He's just a little . They talk about his versatilty, but he never wants to use it. He only wants to play SG. Sorry, bub. We've got that covered, X3, with better players.
If we're going to use position #15, make it a developmental project. We have enough Thirtysomething veterans already.
When I first realized he was on the way out, I thought the Spurs should pick him up for as close to the minimum as possible, but I don't think he offers the team anything they don't already have. He can score, but they have Finley. He's a 'playmaker' but tends to dominate the ball. I agree, that 15 slot should go to a young prospect. Let's try and get Marshall.
he's more like no risk no reward. has he ever had a productive year
I vote no...
IF Jalen plays here, even if it's only for a season, it increases the chance he will wind up doing Spurs broadcasts once he has retired...
This must never happen...
You're right Mr. Body, we're stacked with long small forwards.I don't think he offers the team anything they don't already have
Rose can't defend and rebound, I don't see how he will be more usefull than Barry or Finley.we're stacked with long small forwards.
Being 6'8" is useless if you don't use your height to grab boars or play defense on big players.
People said the same about Steve Kerr, Stephen Jackson, Glenn Robinson, etc., I'd say those worked out okay. The Spurs can teach guys how to play defense, you've been around long enough to know that by now.Rose can't defend and rebound, I don't see how he will be more usefull than Barry or Finley.

Just admit you don't like the guy and move on.
I don't like the guy. I'll leave it up to the coaching staff to see if he can be rehabilitated. I don't think we have an inside line on that like we did with GRob.
I think it would all depend on what Larry Brown thought of Jalen, because you know Pop would be calling him for the scoop.
We don't need this kind of players this year because we still have Barry and Finley.
Jalen rose isn't a player that I don't like, I just don't think he can help us.
BTW, Just admit you don't like Pop and move on.
The potential is intriguing, but I just can't see Rose coming over here and being happy with GRob-type minutes.
malik coming back ha ha
He's talking about Jalen Rose, not Malik.malik coming back ha ha
